What is meant by the 1st and 2nd round of counselling? What actually happen in these two. How are they different
Hii Ishita
In
most of courses like medical ,engineering, undergrad and postgraduate , college counselings are
engaged so a student can know about the various courses offered by
different colleges where he or she can pursue there career
confidently. Usually a lot of colleges participate in counseling and a
particular college engage counseling on behalf of other colleges.
Let
me give an example like for engineering in India, IITs engage
counseling every year so that a student can fill his/her college
choices. We have around 16 IITs and 9 aiims all over india, so he/she has give a preference of
colleges. Like most proffered college first.Then
there are around 10-15 courses offered by college in various streams . So student has to
give a choice of course also.
Students
and their parents takes a lot of time to to go through different
courses and colleges. So a student need to plan well and should take
advice from their seniors.
A
counseling can engaged multiple times. They do this whenever their seat
remained unfilled and they have a waiting list of aspiring student who
are willing to take admission.
counselling can take place a number of times untill all the seats are filled up , colleges often do have spot counselling too.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.
